A. Trehan et al., TRIMETHYLSILYL BIS(FLUOROSULFONYL)IMIDE - A NEW CATALYST FOR THE REACTIONS OF ACETALS WITH SILYL NUCLEOPHILES, Tetrahedron letters, 34(45), 1993, pp. 7335-7338
A new catalyst trimethylsilyl bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide has been prepar
ed for aldol type reactions and allylation of acetals .The catalyst ha
s been found to be more active than trimethylsilyl triflate for the ab
ove reactions.
